The Battle of Delville Wood (15 July – 3 September 1916) was a series of engagements in the 1916 Battle of the Somme in the First World War, between the armies of the German Empire and the British Empire. Delville Wood (Bois d'Elville), was a thick tangle of trees, chiefly beech and hornbeam (the wood has been replanted with oak and birch by the South African government), with dense hazel thickets, intersected by grassy rides, to the east of Longueval. As part of a general offensive starting on 14 July, which became known as the Battle of Bazentin Ridge (14–17 July), General Douglas Haig, Commander of the British Expeditionary Force, intended to capture the German second position between Delville Wood and Bazentin le Petit.

  • معركة دلفيل وود (15 يوليو-3 سبتمبر 1916): هي سلسلة من الاشتباكات ضمن معركة السوم التي وقعت في الحرب العالمية الأولى عام 1916 بين جيوش الإمبراطورية الألمانية والإمبراطورية البريطانية. كانت دلفيل وود (بالفرنسية: Bois d'Elville) مجموعة كثيفة من الأشجار، على رأسها خشب الزان والشرد (أعادت حكومة جنوب أفريقيا زراعة المنطقة باستخدام البلوط والبتولا)، مع غابات كثيفة من البندق، تتقاطع مع مروج من الأعشاب، إلى الشرق من لونغيفل. بصفتها جزءًا من الهجوم العام الذي بدأ في 14 يوليو، الذي عُرف لاحقًا باسم معركة بازنتين ريدج (14-17 يوليو)، هدف قائد قوة المشاة البريطانية الجنرال دوغلاس هيغ إلى الاستيلاء على المركز الألماني الثاني بين دلفيل وود وبازنتين الصغيرة.

  • La bataille du bois Delville a lieu du 14 juillet au 3 septembre 1916, c'est une des batailles de l'offensive alliée sur la Somme pendant la Première Guerre mondiale. Elle oppose la IIe armée de l'Empire allemand aux forces de l'empire britanniques. Le bois Delville est situé au nord-est de la ville de Longueval dans le département de la Somme. Après les deux premières semaines sanglantes de l'offensive alliée sur la Somme, la percée des lignes allemandes parait illusoire. L'offensive évolue vers une série d'opérations visant la capture de petites villes ou villages, de bois apportant des avantages tactiques à partir desquels il est possible de diriger des tirs d'artillerie ou de lancer de nouvelles attaques.

  • La battaglia del Bosco di Delville è stata un'azione bellica condotta tra il 14 luglio e il 3 settembre 1916 durante la Battaglia della Somme nel corso della prima guerra mondiale. Lo scontro è avvenuto tra le armate dell'Impero tedesco e quelle alleate della Gran Bretagna e dell'Impero britannico. Il bosco di Delville è a nord-est della cittadina di Longueval, appartenente al dipartimento francese della Somme nel nord della Francia. Dopo due mesi di carneficina dall'inizio dello scontro della Somme, divenne evidente che uno sfondamento delle linee di entrambi gli schieramenti fosse molto improbabile e che l'offensiva si stesse evolvendo al fine di catturare le piccole cittadine strategicamente più importanti, i tratti boschivi o gli aspetti che offrivano a entrambe le armate vantaggi di t (it)
  • Delvillebos (Frans: Bois d'Elville), is een klein bos bij het dorp Longueval in de Somme-vallei in Frankrijk. Tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog (1914– 1918) raakten 121 officieren en 3032 manschappen van de Eerste Zuid-Afrikaanse Infanterie Brigade op 14 juli 1916 er in een hevig gevecht verwikkeld. Zes dagen later, op 20 juli, snelde de Brigade te hulp, maar dit was te laat. Slechts 29 officieren en 751 manschappen hebben de Slag van Delvillebos overleefd. (nl)
